There have been rumors floating around that Mercedes is considering a hardcore version of the GT inspired by their new AMG GT3 racer that's enjoying its world premiere at this week's Geneva Motor Show.

Mercedes has just lifted the veil on its plug-in hybrid concept based on the V-Class van in Geneva. It promises to be the most powerful V, while at the same time returning efficiency numbers comparable to those of a city car (in the ideal conditions, with a full battery, of course).

It would have been a tall order for Mercedes to successfully hide the massively long Maybach S600 Pullman – it’s a huge car measuring around 6 and a half meters or 256 inches in length from bow to stern.

One of Mansory’s world debuts at the Geneva Motor Show is the muscled up Sahara Edition based on the Mercedes G63 AMG. Sporting a redesigned carbon body covered with camouflage decal, 22-inch XXL alloy wheels and a hand-applied leather interior, the rugged off-roader gets an impressive power output of 828hp.

While diesel cars are relatively common in many parts of the world now, with growing interest in others, it’s important to know which car it was that started the whole diesel alternative. It was a Mercedes-Benz, the 260D from 1937, to be precise.

During the Detroit Auto Show, Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche stated that a Mercedes-Maybach SUV will "most likely" be greenlit in the near future. Though apparently they're not interested in making smaller SUVs.

Mercedes now offers its E63 saloon and estate as both rear- and all-wheel drive (outside the US). The move undoubtedly increased the model’s appeal, especially for buyers in cooler climates, but now it seems Mercedes is tempted to ditch rear-wheel drive completely for the next iteration of the E63.

Objectively, there isn't anything bad you can say about the Mercedes-Benz AMG C63 S. Whether you're Chris Harris or Jeremy Clarkson or anybody who is able to appreciate a fast AMG saloon, this thing will blow your mind.

From plastic body armour to swirly wraps, Mercedes has tried its best to keep the new S-Class Convertible fully concealed from prying eyes, but not anymore. This latest tester has dropped most of its camo leaving only the rear bottom half hidden under tape.

I’m sure no one had any doubts about the Mercedes-Benz G500 4x4² show car’s off-road capabilities, but it’s one thing reading about what the vehicle can do and a completely different thing seeing it in action.

Brabus claims its take on the Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe is the world’s fastest and most powerful all-wheel drive coupe. Scheduled to debut at the Geneva Motor Show next week, the Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo Coupe is powered by a heavily revised version of the twin-turbo V8 engine from the S63 AMG Coupe.

Before the VW Beetle made the rear-engined layout popular, it was actually Mercedes that had a mass produced car out before Hitler did. The German marque made a total of three rear-engined models, namely the 130, 150 and 170H – the latter was offered as both front- or rear-engined.
